We are focused on enhancing the health and wellbeing of patients, service users and athletes and our commitment to public involvement helps us retain our strong focus on real world issues.

We work closely with industry partners and are proud of the links we’ve developed. These provide our students with a diverse range of placement opportunities and industry experience, maximising employability prospects and allowing the development of skills and confidence in a real world setting. From work placements in the NHS, private healthcare practices, voluntary and local government sectors to sports clubs, our partnerships offer the rare and exciting opportunity to work with some of the UK’s top athletes, sports people and healthcare professionals. When joining us in the School of Health Sciences, our students and partnership organisations become part of a School driven to develop talented and dedicated professionals to make a difference in the real world.

The School of Health Sciences offers a leading, forward thinking environment which focuses on new technologies and pioneering techniques in the health sciences arena. Our research underpins our teaching and learning, ensuring our staff, students and partner organisations reach their full potential and remain at the forefront of innovation.
